Solution
Two triangles are congruent, if two angles and the side included between them in one of the triangles are equal to the two angles and the side included between them of the other triangle. This is known as the ASA congruence criterion.
Explanation:
Under ASA congruence criterion, two triangles are congruent, if two angles and the side included between them in one of the triangles are equal to the two angles and the side included between them in the other triangle.
